This issue brings the events of the Ultimate Hawkeye mini-series back to the fore, as The Ultimates head to Tian to try and convince the Celestials and the Eternals to help them against Reed Richards and his City. It was great to read a story that, in my mind at least, would never happen in the regular Marvel Universe, and one that relied entirely on new and recent story developments. The Ultimate Universe is no longer re-hashing old stuff, it really is doing it’s own thing. I did think that Reed Richards, for someone supposedly super-intelligent, acted like a bit of an idiot when he shut down the message from Tian, but then that’s his arrogance bringing him down. It was awesome to have Esad Ribic back drawing the entire issue, I liked Brandon Peterson, but Ribic really does bring a different feel to this title, it’s very European, which makes sense, Ribic is European! The final scene with the Hulk smashing around the City was awesome, can’t wait to see the carnage of #8
